Hi ,my name is Shane

Postby Booney » Mon Dec 12, 2005 8:12 am

Hi,my name is Shane,I recently lost my employment opportunities and am seeking re-employment.My C.V reads pretty well.I am a Brownlow medallist,only 5 years ago in fact.About 4 years ago I was the sweetheart pin-up boy at a club that has struggled on the field for some years,(I have played in a few finals though).I decided to leave the club I loved for so many years,chasing that illusive premiership,I jumped on board a sinking ship,they had been flying up until 18 months ago,sadly I missed the boat.Last year I found myself struggling to get into a struggling unit, next thing I know I am using a street directory to find the oval I am playing at,most of the grounds I played at before had buses going straight to the gate,some of the places I played at last year didn't even know what a bus was.

So,here is my pledge,I am willing to play for your club for the minimum wage,I will train hard,look fit and blonde,heck,I'll try my best to get a kick,so,please,please,some one give me chance.

You can contact my managment at http://www.desperateaflhasbeen.net

Thankyou for your time.

regards,


Shane.X.
PAFC. Forever.

LOOK OUT, WE'RE COMING!

Ouch! Woey has struggled of late, that is well known. What is not so well known is that he busted a gut when he went down to Willy last year and also has hardly missed a game through injury for the last three years. I woldn't want him at Geelong as I don't think he is the type of player we need but I reckon he would provide more value than say, a Scott Camporole or Chris Heffernen. 5hit, if the guy played for Hawthorn he'd be at the Kangaroos already.

At a potential salary for $52k per year for 3 years, I'd love to have him at Richmond. If it doesn't work out, then we've failed, but only 1 rookie has missed a spot on the list...we're still in the market for 3 others and history suggests in the past 4-5 years, only 2 RFC rookies have been promoted from rookie list to senior list hence the chances of a rookie having success is unlikely anyway.

Woey is worth a punt...he oozes class...and with the right coach he'll do well...

Well since he is prepared to play for that amount of money, perhaps its worth a punt. I proabably wouldnt want him in my team, but then again i might be wrong and he might just prove to be quite useful in some teams.

Turns out he didn't get picked up...I think this is a waste of a career with so much still to offer but that's the nature of footy.

He's welcome to come to Glenelg. :wink:
